icanthearyou 4,468 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Those who truly want to minimize abortion will argue for social programs like: child care, healthcare, food assistance, affordable housing. They certainly do not support the idea by advocating for guns. That is an absurdity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you reduce what it means to be a human being to the microbiological level,,, you destroy what it actually means to be human. I believe your agenda is purely political, not humanitarian. If left alone would a fetus become a child? I’m not the one who is reducing what it means to be human, I feel for human life, you must believe if it isn’t outside the womb it is microbiological. That is reducing what it means to be human to it’s lowest form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, at least you now admit that a clump of dividing cells is not yet a child. Abortion is a humane way to remove a clump of unwanted dividing cells. Doing nothing but using the force of law to make sure we have a population of resentful parents and, unwanted children is highly inhumane. It will also create a miserable, inefficient, unproductive society. The solution lies in compassion, empathy, humanity, not the force of law.

It will also create a miserable, inefficient, unproductive society. The solution lies in compassion, empathy, humanity, not the force of law. There is so much wrong with this post, I don’t know where to start. What makes the clump of cells unwanted? It surely isn’t the clump of cells that wants to be terminated. What was the norm before there was safe, legal and rare? I don’t recall the population being made up of resentful parents. People used to take responsibility for their actions, but since safe, legal and rare was a substitute for birth control people give little regard for human life especially if it is inconvenient to have a child. Where is the compassion for the child that is sucked out of the woman’s womb? Is there any empath for the humanity lost due to a woman’s self centered decision to abort? The law did not force a woman to get pregnant, the was her decision. Abortions have decreased since 1980 and this is a good thing and I would guess abortions to decrease even further in the coming years. Do you want the rate to increase so we have less miserable, inefficient and unproductive people in the world? Why would you assume the children being aborted are going to be worthless. What a horrible way of looking at the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creed 1,818 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) I'd like add an opinion. Most people relate abortion to the female and think she is weak for seeking one. But I contend that abortion is much more a male issue. We have, and are raising, weak men in our society. A lot of this is centered around weak men who decide to divorce and break up their families, or raise their kids with low morals and lack of respect for women. I know I may be stepping on some toes here, but I believe a strong, loving, nuclear family, with a strong father is the cornerstone of any society. To summarize, weak men are the root cause of abortions. Edited May 6, 2023 by creed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus, your Savior, communicated with John the Baptist while they were both in the wombs of Mary and her cousin Elizabeth. Maybe you should reconsider your attack on human life and the sanctity that Jesus brought to that life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are states that have the heart beat law and that is usually 6 weeks or so. This would indicate some brain activity. You mentioned 16 weeks, but really didn't answer Creed’s question. Would you be alright with a 15 week abortion ban or are you one of those that want the woman to be able to decide if they want to abort the child up until the moment of birth? 2 hours ago, icanthearyou said: I do not. However, you cannot refuse to acknowledge data, statistics. Without social benevolence, the probability of outcome is not good. Again,,, your argument is political. It lacks any real sense of humanity. Your first statement here indicates you would look to statistical data to abort a child as they would need benevolence by society to survive. Your next statement accuses me of being political. I believe I am more concerned with the welfare of the unborn and you are being more political. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
